Tigers to hire Giants' GM Scott Harris as president of baseball operations BALTIMORE — The Tigers have their new boss.
Trevor Hildenberger - Activated, heads to Triple-A Hildenberger (undisclosed) was reinstated from Double-A Richmond's 60-day injured list Friday and was assigned to Triple-A Sacramento.
Impact Hildenberger, who had been sidelined all season before making one rehab appearance in the rookie-level Arizona Complex League on Aug. 5 and another at Single-A San Jose on Sept. 11, finally looks to be healthy again. He'll look to end the injury-plagued campaign on a high note at Triple-A with the hope of earning another minor-league deal with the Giants or another organization heading into 2023.

John Brebbia - Takes extra-inning loss Brebbia (6-2) allowed two runs (one earned) on a hit and two walks over two-thirds of an inning, taking the loss Sunday versus the Dodgers.
Impact Brebbia couldn't keep the game tied in the 10th inning, and the Giants weren't able to pull even again in their half of the frame. The loss is Brebbia's first since June 15, an impressive stretch of relative effectiveness, especially since he's made six appearances as an opener this year. The right-hander has made a National League-leading 69 appearances this season, covering 62 innings with a 2.90 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and 49:18 K:BB. He's added 18 holds and three blown saves, essentially serving as a setup option when he's not opening games.

Alex Cobb - Decent in no-decision Cobb allowed two runs on four hits and three walks while striking out three over 5.1 innings in a no-decision versus the Dodgers on Sunday.
Impact Cobb allowed an RBI double to Justin Turner in the fourth inning and an RBI single to Freddie Freeman in the sixth. It was the just second time in five starts that Cobb's allowed runs to score, with both of those instances coming against the Dodgers. The right-hander has been quietly effective with a 3.48 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and 136:40 K:BB through 134.2 innings across 25 starts this season. He'll look to get back in the win column next week in a projected road start versus Arizona.

Impact The 28-year-old was scratched from Friday's lineup with side tightness and will sit out Sunday for a third straight contest. Heliot Ramos will start in right field and bat ninth while Wade should be considered day-to-day.

Brandon Crawford - Rests in series finale Crawford is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Dodgers, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Impact After a string of five consecutive starts, the lefty-hitting Crawford will head to the bench for the series finale while southpaw Andrew Heaney toes the rubber for the Dodgers. Thairo Estrada will move over from his usual spot at the keystone to replace Crawford at shortstop.

Jharel Cotton - Claimed by San Francisco Cotton was claimed off waivers by the Giants on Sunday, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.
Impact Cotton was designated for assignment Thursday by Minnesota for the fourth time this season, and this time he was plucked off the waiver wire by San Francisco. The 30-year-old has a 2.83 ERA, 1.11 WHIP and 31:16 K:BB across 35 innings this season.
SEPTEMBER 18, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Willie Calhoun - Dropped from 40-man roster The Giants designated Calhoun for assignment Sunday, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.
Impact San Francisco dropped Calhoun from its 40-man roster to clear room for right-handed reliever Jharel Cotton, whom the team claimed off waivers from the Twins. Calhoun went 1-for-8 at the dish during his brief four-game stint with the Giants last week before he was optioned to Triple-A Sacramento on Saturday.
SEPTEMBER 18, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Thairo Estrada - Records 19th steal Estrada went 1-for-3 with a hit-by-pitch, a stolen base and a run scored in Saturday's 7-2 loss to the Dodgers.
Impact Estrada singled, moved to second on an error, stole third and scored on a fielder's choice in the first inning. He was in the leadoff spot for just the second time this year, though he's hit everywhere but ninth at least once as once of the sturdiest Giants this season. He's hitting .280 with two home runs, three steals, four RBI and seven runs scored through 15 games in September, lifting his season slash line to .263/.321/.406 through 126 contests.
SEPTEMBER 18, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Wilmer Flores - Sets new career high in homers Flores went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Saturday's 7-2 loss to the Dodgers.
Impact Flores entered Saturday's game stuck in an 0-for-13 skid, but he was able to snap it with his third-inning homer. The infielder has hit safely in just four of 15 games in September, batting .093 this month despite knocking three homers. The late-season slump has dropped his slash line to .229/.312/.408 with a career-high 19 homers, 66 RBI, 67 runs scored and 26 doubles through 137 contests.

Carlos Rodón - Should make next start Rodon (finger) looks to be good to go for his next start, which lines up to come Tuesday in Colorado, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Impact Rodon left his last start against Atlanta after just five innings and 71 pitches due to a blister and a cracked nail, but it doesn't look as though the issue will force him to miss a turn in the rotation. That's excellent news for the Giants and for those with Rodon on their fantasy teams, as Rodon's dominant season makes him a strong choice even at Coors Field.
